Prinzipal

Kreuzberg


The sassy glamour of the Golden Twenties gets a classy reboot at Prinzipal, an apothecary-style burlesque bar right on funky-punky Oranienstrasse. The menu features all the classics along with such house cocktails as the rum-based Heidi Klum and the margarita riff Rita Lynch. On some nights, burlesque performers swing from the ceiling.
